All I Want Is Everything

Some 15 year old kid sits on his porch, just half-past noonTrying to figure out just what he’s doingWhy he had to grow up so soonWith all the gangs, all the guns-watcha gonna learn in schoolThere’s got to be some way out of hereHe says ‘Man, this life is cruel’

I knew this Puerto Rican girl who lied to change her lifeShe changed her nameHer face because the grass looked greener on the other sideShe turned her back, she ran away straight into the nightHer friends, her family feel the pain, but she’s the one who cries

Tell me what you want (Tell me what you want)Tell me what you need (Tell me what you need)I want everything (I want it all)

I’ve had enough of havin’ nothing, I won’t take just anythingI got my mind set on something, all I want is everythingIt’s my life Mr. I ain’t running, I’m no puppet on a stringI want more than I see comingAll I want is everythingAll I want is everything

Say a prayer for DonnieHe died in his room just the other dayHis brother come homeFound him dead on the floor with a needle in his vainCops come down with a body bagThey said Donnie was a casuallyI said, all it’s about is the boy checked outHe couldn’t handle reality

Tell me what you want (Tell me what you want)Tell me what you need (Tell me what you need)I want everything (I want it all)

I’ve had enough of havin’ nothing, I won’t take just anythingI got my mind set on something, all I want is everythingIt’s my life Mr. I ain't running, I’m no puppet on a stringI want more than I see comingAll I want is everythingAll I want is everythingI want it all
